Layer 01Study

What was asked

Hypothesis, independent & dependent variables, paradigm, cohort, and the editorial caveats around what the recordings can and cannot answer.

Layer 02Signal · BIDS

What was recorded

Sidecars, channels & electrodes, coordinate system, event semantics, and quality stats from the NEMAR pipeline when available.

Layer 03Training · ML

What you can train on

Recommended access modes — MNE Raw, braindecode windows, PyTorch DataLoader — plus the targets the metadata makes addressable.

§ 01Access · Get started

Quickstart#

Get Started

Install

pip install eegdash

Access the data

from eegdash.dataset import NM000205

dataset = NM000205(cache_dir="./data")
# Get the raw object of the first recording
raw = dataset.datasets[0].raw
print(raw.info)

Query & Filter

Filter by subject

dataset = NM000205(cache_dir="./data", subject="01")

Advanced query

dataset = NM000205(
    cache_dir="./data",
    query={"subject": {"$in": ["01", "02"]}},
)

Iterate recordings

for rec in dataset:
    print(rec.subject, rec.raw.info['sfreq'])

NEMAR Processing Statistics#

The plots below are generated by NEMAR’s automated EEG pipeline. The histogram shows pipeline success for data cleaning and ICA decomposition, the percentage of data frames and EEG channels retained after artefact removal, line noise per channel (RMS, dB), and the age/gender distribution of participants.

class eegdash.dataset.NM000205(cache_dir: str, query: dict | None = None, s3_bucket: str | None = None, **kwargs)[source]#

RSVP collaborative BCI dataset from Zheng et al 2020

Study:: nm000205 (NeMAR)
Author (year):: Zheng2020
Canonical:: —

Also importable as: NM000205, Zheng2020.

Modality: eeg; Experiment type: Attention; Subject type: Healthy. Subjects: 14; recordings: 84; tasks: 1.

Parameters:

cache_dir (str | Path) – Directory where data are cached locally.
query (dict | None) – Additional MongoDB-style filters to AND with the dataset selection. Must not contain the key dataset.
s3_bucket (str | None) – Base S3 bucket used to locate the data.
**kwargs (dict) – Additional keyword arguments forwarded to EEGDashDataset.

data_dir#

Local dataset cache directory (cache_dir / dataset_id).

Type:: Path

query#

Merged query with the dataset filter applied.

Type:: dict

records#

Metadata records used to build the dataset, if pre-fetched.

Type:: list[dict] | None

Notes

Each item is a recording; recording-level metadata are available via dataset.description. query supports MongoDB-style filters on fields in ALLOWED_QUERY_FIELDS and is combined with the dataset filter. Dataset-specific caveats are not provided in the summary metadata.

Examples

>>> from eegdash.dataset import NM000205
>>> dataset = NM000205(cache_dir="./data")
>>> recording = dataset[0]
>>> raw = recording.load()

__init__(cache_dir: str, query: dict | None = None, s3_bucket: str | None = None, **kwargs)[source]#

save(path: str, overwrite: bool = False, offset: int = 0)[source]#

Save datasets to files by creating one subdirectory for each dataset:

path/
    0/
        0-raw.fif | 0-epo.fif
        description.json
        raw_preproc_kwargs.json (if raws were preprocessed)
        window_kwargs.json (if this is a windowed dataset)
        window_preproc_kwargs.json  (if windows were preprocessed)
        target_name.json (if target_name is not None and dataset is raw)
    1/
        1-raw.fif | 1-epo.fif
        description.json
        raw_preproc_kwargs.json (if raws were preprocessed)
        window_kwargs.json (if this is a windowed dataset)
        window_preproc_kwargs.json  (if windows were preprocessed)
        target_name.json (if target_name is not None and dataset is raw)

Parameters:

path (str) –

Directory in which subdirectories are created to store
-raw.fif | -epo.fif and .json files to.
overwrite (bool) – Whether to delete old subdirectories that will be saved to in this call.
offset (int) – If provided, the integer is added to the id of the dataset in the concat. This is useful in the setting of very large datasets, where one dataset has to be processed and saved at a time to account for its original position.
